Rick....you have changed everything the fine Japanese engineers built you....RC is who you should be complaining about!!!
I wheel mine EVERY week...HARD....never broke an axle yet.....
I agree it's not the FJ. I'm in and out of the mud every weekend, over 40,000 miles and 2 years and not a problem, but I'm only running the ome 3" lift.
It's no surprise to see that the dealership would void the warranty on a FJ modified that much, especially on a part like the CV axle that would be prone to failure pushing 35" tires at extreme angles caused by the lift.
I would believe that some how the axle were put in wrong when installing the lift. I would blame RC, but I don't hear about others with this lift having this issue so soon.

How do you know their gone, can you hear them making noise?
